I loved Sonic on Master System, Game Gear and Mega Drive/Genesis and was completely thrown off guard when I played Sonic Generations on the 360 decades later ("whoa how can anyone keep up with that pace?"). Once you embrace t

Next to frequent flyer status I'd also assume that it's less likely to hit you if you have checked in some luggage. In Europe even before 9/11 flight security protocols demanded that a passenger need to be present on the plan

'Depressing' has a variety of facets made up of sadness, textual content/lyrics, and (at least for me) the placement of the title within its respective album context. Anecdote: When I previewed Kid A via AudioGalaxy back then

Awesome, thanks for sharing! Took me right back there. I was soo happy to have that 2X CD drive and a 486DX to be able to play this game. Back then we were implementing our own bitmap drawing apps (simply called a PROGRAM back then) in Tur

Thanks for sharing! I'm currently leading the (soft) transition of a two-platform, not-so-much-shared-code code base (ObjC, Java, Swift, C++) to React Native. We hit some snags early on (mostly wrt tooling; also prepare to alter your m

Can anyone recommend a tool for macOS that monitors disk usage changes over time? I usually use Disk Inventory X but I'd really like to correlate usage increases to specific dates / app installs, so it'd be nice to see stats

Is this what "Breathe" on the Apple Watch tries to help doing? I never bothered to measure the intervals, so does anyone know if there's more to it? (the watch has access to heart rate and shows a current rate result afterwar

+1 for dashing [1] While not actively maintained by Shopify anymore it's working really well, has easy setup and allows you to get up and running quickly. The grid system and basic widgets provide a good and clean starting point, altho

Awesome! Really nice what Nicolas and the whole community of Haxe contributors are doing to push language, eco system and targets. Thanks to all of you involved for working on this! > Just-In-Time compilation (actually Ahead-of-Time) Als

Maybe I'm late to the game but it seems Apple now allows all developers to create promo codes for IAPs as well :)

About a decade ago I was working for a smaller company that provided local IT services for a large SaaS provider which also enforced territorial protection by only allowing a number of certified service companies in the area. 95% of all fie

Nice. For those interested in the topic Amit Patel has a great article on polygonal map generation. Also discusses features like elevation, moisture, rivers etc: http://www-cs-students.stanford.edu/~amitp/game-programmi

Looks awesome! Hope I'll get around to play around with this some time. Also: Props for your GDC Europe talk a few years ago! (better Nate than lever..)

Absolutely this. This year I have been growing Bhut Jolokia (ghost peppers), Habanero, Scotch Bonnet and Jalapeños both in a small greenhouse and outdoors. I afterwards dehydrate the fruits to prevent mold and so I can store them over the w

For me it helps getting a feel for new languages / environments so I can get up to speed and tinker without losing too much momentum. Also camelCaseMethod completion (e.g. via ccm) can speed up progress dramatically if you know the exa

Man we were proud when we soldered our own Covox DACs for the LPT; Our MODs sure sounded awesome on those :) And I didn't know DOSBox has an emulation for those, nice!

I did not get around to use haXe in a production env yet but it is one of the very few language/ecosystem/target areas where there has been a huge amount of both innovation and consolidation during the past n years. Shouts to Nico

Apple recently rejected a tvOS app of mine due to the 2.12 no long lasting value item. I sort of anticipated that and while for some users the amount of content and long lastingness is sufficient in that build I think the features I had ini

yeah but some team selection dropdowns still don't distinguish between the Enterprise and App Store teams, so you end up with two "MyCompany Inc." entries. Using any "fix issue" magic becomes an even more risky gamb

That's pretty cool. Might speed up asset creation for games by orders of magnitude: Train with concept art, generate the variations via these networks; adds consistency to the output and helps loosen the asset bottleneck / conten

One of the really sad/annoying things here is the obvious misdirection: editing a swift file does not disable the Refactor context and submenu entries, so clicking on any one option will trigger that nasty message essentially saying &q
